Edith Kermit Carow Roosevelt has written about the chimney and carpentry work, but tells Ida Seaman that Noah Seaman should write to the plumber, because since she is not there she cannot describe the issue herself. Roosevelt would be happy to send rugs and paper once she knows the sizes necessary. Some plants are being shipped to Sagamore Hill, and Roosevelt says Noah Seaman can put them wherever he wants. The Roosevelt children will be coming to Sagamore Hill around June 6.
